You really think this reassures Tesla owners?

“Open Wheel”?

“sold to city dwellers. Lots of them young, male and stupid”

Geez, you’d think Ford didn’t make cars in Europe....They already make those little hatchbacks in Europe.

What kind of break do you need? Engine? transmission? frame? electrics? I’m sure the gods will provide....

Same old, same old....

Sorry, I’m not interested in safer than the average human. If I’m trusting a computer, I want it to be a lot safer than the best human, and to make full use of the abilities of the scanners it has available.

If the human eye can’t see better than the video camera used on the volvo, then I’d agree, however I suspect the hunan eye is better than that, particularly with the help of streetlights. It might have been enough to have at least removed some speed or swerved, so I won’t discount the possibility it could at least

But will the Golden Eagle be any better or worse?

It isn’t aimed at you, it’s aimed at single rich men who want to project a particular image - smooth, rough, fast and tough. And they fail at all of them.

Which is probably superfluous now.

Top gear is now effectively Top Gear America, It’s no longer an “English” programme - it’s deliberately gone global/US centred.

Interesting - electric car with manual gearbox.

Better than nothing for sure. When I need tyres again I might get a set of all seasons. The Michelin crossclimate ones might be ok.

Even summer tyres with tread don’t have a lot of grip. I had a pair of snow tyres on my last mpv which I rotated back to front for winter. We didn’t get any snow for the whole time I did that. I changed mpv this year but it didn’t need tyres so of course this year we get snow....

Down in the south UK it hasn’t been this bad since about 2010. It’s about a 7 to 10 year event. And it normally lasts about 2 days, though this is going to go to maybe 4 days. The biggest problem is jackknifed or simply stuck big rigs. If one of them blocks a road that’s it for hours. Winter tyres are helpful in light

Since Hollywood STILL characterises Brits as the bad guys you have absolutely no grounds to complain about stereotypes in a 49 year old film.

Just a bunch of loser punks trying to get noticed.

The age of the internal combustion engine as the powerplant of fast Drag cars is ending.

“warn owners that automatic transmissions have the potential for overheating”
